STYLE INSPIRATION: STAFANI MILANO

       I'm inspired by lots of things.. Fashion been one and I love those who express their selves through fashion or Art. 

       Funny enough these two (Fashion and Art) ain't so distinct from each other. In fact, to me "Fashion" is "Art".

       Art is a huge part of me and is what drives me.. If that's what drives you, in which ever way, whether painting, styling, singing, etc then its perfectly okay to go with it.

       Enough with the long talks. Today's style inspiration is Stafani Milano. Most times we see pieces or even have them but don't know what to do with them or style them.

 Here's some fashion inspiration for your eyes and mind... We call it....

                                                               "FREEDOM!"

       You have that over sized baseball '86' tee or number tee? Here's a way to style it and be street chic!

                                               "BALLING WITH NO SWEATS"

       Who told you you can't be street dope and feminine at the same time? (Raised eyebrows).. Let the fitted sweat pants and the strap heels do the talking.

                                                             "LET'S PLAY DARE!"

       Thigh high open slit dress is a way to show some legs, love this Cleopatra inspired dress coz its covered up yet daring and sexy! Dare to be daring in a 'thigh high strap gladiator shoes'.. Perfect!

                                                       "VERY WELL PLAID"

       We love the way she rocked this casual look.. A cool tee wt a moto biker jacket, ripped denim short and a Plaid shirt to spice it all up..well played!

                                                    "REAL ANIMAL INSTINCTS"

       Y'all who know me well knows i'm a sucker for animal prints. Love the way she paired it with neutrals.. Simply staying in tune with nature (this is one perfect way to wear that print in your closet). And that fur bag?.. Totally gorgeous.

                                                                 "LAID BACK"

                   Shirt dresses is another cool fashion trend.. I hope it stays around much much longer.

                                                                "ME MOCHA"

       Love this shade of brown.. Compliments a dark toned lady rightly. The sweat long sleeve dress is one way to stay warm and sexy during the "cold" season. 

              This Maxi wrapped open thigh skirt is one special find.. Do you know it's H&M?

                                                               "ROCK STEADY"

                                         Graphic tee, Biker jacket with those Shoes?... *love*

                                                               "SHIRT ME OUT!"

                         That triangle shaped clutch just gives this lovely number a Vava Voom!

                                                               "JERSILICIOUS"

                  Every girl should own at least oneJersey top.. You can always dress it up or dress it down.

                                                                          "PLAY"

        I love this outfit, it's playful yet serious looking.. and ooh, the animal print jacket and the infamous boyfriend jean was done perfectly with the cool pink tee. 

        Well, it's a wrap! I hope you were inspired? To see more of her style, visit: www.smfashionology.com
